What causes this issue?

Only a new version of the selected object exists. This is currently
locked by another user, so you cannot obtain update authorization. This
lock is not a temporary system lock (i.e. the user is in the process of
maintaining the object), but a permanent reservation of this version.

System Response

Since no active version of this object exists, the system only displays
a message indicating that the object is locked.

How to fix this error?

Only the user currently maintaining the object can remove the lock by
activating it or explictly releasing it for maintenance by all other
users with the 'unlock' function.
